With him on the Abraham Lincoln are his ever-faithful servant, Conseil, the harpooner Ned Land. Their glorious mission becomes a nightmare when they are thrown from their ship and taken aboard the ‘monster’ itself: a man-made submarine- Nautilus- exploring the wonders of the underwater world. There they are the captives of the inscrutable Captain Nemo.
Resigned to their fate, they are shown unimaginable wonders of the oceans: the reef of coral that formed a cemetery, the ice floes of the South Pole, the huge oyster and its priceless pearl, the volcanic wonders of the lost land of Atlantis and a great many more extraordinary sights that were to compensate for their lack of liberty.
